Question

A parallelogram has vertices upper A, upper B, upper C, and upper D. Opposite vertices are connected via diagonal lines that intersect at an interior point labeled upper E.

In parallelogram ABCD
, if the length of segment BE
is 11 units, what is the length of segment DE
?

(1 point)
Segment DE
measures
units in length

Answer 1

In a parallelogram, the diagonals bisect each other. This means that the point of intersection (E) divides each diagonal into two equal segments.

Given that \( BE \) measures 11 units, it follows that \( DE \) must also measure 11 units. Therefore, the length of segment \( DE \) is:

11 units.
